Hey gentlemen,

Does renewing a/your team in a world make you any more or less viable to get a D1 job?  Say I decide not to renew my current team, but will still look to chase D1 jobs, does that make me less prone to get a D1 job or does it not matter.  What do you think?  Interested in opinions here.

I think less. After I have dropped a team, and the world has started a new season, I have not been able to qualify for my old job in several cases.

neither. it used to be the case that after 5 seasons, you could get way better jobs, but i think seble closed that. outside of that, your employment status has no bearing on the jobs you are able to get.

I've heard of coaches before who lost their job for forgetting to renew and couldn't even get their last job back.  I'll go with chapelhillne, although these two scenarios might be unrelated

I think they are unrelated.  You got the job that you can not get now (after you forget to renew) when you applied for it and your resume was at that point in time.  In many cases, it takes some time at a new team to get them going in the right direction.  If you forget to renew, then your current resume will be used .. that can be worse than your original resume, and likely is for the first several seasons of a rebuild.

this is correct. you not being able to get a job you have now means nothing except that your resume and/or the job itself have changed. i think we know for sure that your status (having a team or not) is not a factor, except for that one bug i mentioned earlier (which i think is gone now?). i don't think it's just my opinion.

and/or that the job logic is dumb. 

But I don't think this is unusual. I took ETSU from D- prestige to the Sweet Sixteen in Knight before moving up to an SEC school. I'm no longer qualified for the ETSU job. I know I did have one bad season at said SEC school, but I really don't think this has anything to do with renewal, I think it has to do with the job logic being absurd.
